We cannot believe that Conlee is 8 months old today...the time is FLYING! I decided what better way to celebrate her 8 month birthday than with a little photo shoot of Conlee in 2 of her new dresses. She's such a trooper during these shoots...she loves the camera!
The paparazzi snuck into the dressing room a little before we were ready to go!
If you look closely here, you can see my top two front teeth ready to break through any day now!
Conlee is absolutely obsessed with books. We probably have story time 3 -4 times each day. Every time we sit in the chair in her room, she leans over and practically falls out of my arms trying to reach for her books. Some favorites are The Tickle Monster, The Pout, Pout Fish, Cat in The Hat, The Sweet Dreams Book (a standard before all naps & bedtime), My Very Own Fairy Tale Book, Skippyjon Jones Books, and the list goes on and on and on and on!
And here she is in birthday suit + a bow...look at those precious chunky thighs!!!
Conlee really is such a huge blessing and joy in our lives! We are so thankful that God chose us to be her parents, and that we get to watch her grow and change every day. It's really incredible to have a front row seat while she is developing into this little person before my eyes! Here are some of her 8 month stats:She is such a happy baby! She wakes up a little after 6:15am and just sits and talks and plays in her crib until about 6:45 or 7...whenever I can drag myself to her! She's discovered the video monitor near her crib, and I swear I think she knows we can see her. She pulls up on the sides of the bed and puts her face right into the monitor and smiles this huge smile every morning...when she doesn't grab it and pull it into bed with her! She's a great eater, and is loving all the new big girl food she's been trying. Today we tried cheese toast and she was in heaven! She's a mover and a shaker! She can't crawl yet, but she scoots and rolls her way all around the living room. She loves all her toys and will play independently for ridiculously long periods. She actually pulled herself up from sitting to standing for the first time today during our photo shoot (see photo above!). Obviously I'm biased, but she really is just wonderful! She has the best little laugh, and it's so contagious. Her squeals and babbles are among my favorite sounds. It's hard to believe in just 4 short months she'll be 1!

What a beautiful angel! I can't believe how fast they grow. She is clearly a very healthy, very happy little chunk and that's because she has AWESOME parents like you and Brent! Miss you all so much! xoxo
